Discipline

I know i hardly do posts like these, but i feel that if voicing out my opinions doesn't help then my last thought/resort has to be blogging then it shall be. I'm aware that my readers aren't all students but also, generally adults too. And i don't want anyone to happen to stumble upon this entry and get the wrong idea of what i'm trying to say and mis-interpret everything and then it might become the 'headlines' back at school on Monday. I would appreciate that you don't read this entry if you feel that you don't want to hear any not very nice things about school and everything that can be related to it. And please don't think that i'm referring to you either, this is a nameless entry and it will always be.

Face the truth. 'Truth is like the Sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain't going away.' What's the truth then? It's a fact, school doesn't seem to be a school anymore. I look at a school as a place where i go to to get educated, to make mistakes and learn from it, to make friends and most importantly, have fun and enjoy each other's company as we do day to day activities. If all these are taken care of, i'll say school is enjoyable it would be something that i'll always look foreward to even though there might be tests and exams but still, there's a part of fun. In other words, a rainbow that you can see, right after the rain. 

But currently, does school feel like this? If you say yes, then why do people say they're dreading school or to be exact, why do KCP-ians say they dread school? Every school is gearing up for the Finals, the pressure would be similar so that isn't quite the reason for dreading school. The actual reason is because of Discipline. Every school has a part on Discipline, but how about my school? 

Why is it that Discipline has to come to this extend? We're a Secondary school, we're teenagers. We go to school to learn to have fun, we're teenagers! What do you expect? We need our share of play time & rest&relax time, don't we? Why's it that i feel that school is turning into a military school instead? You see a DM walking pass class to class with a cane in his hands, you see a DM holding scissors in his hands calling guys to a corner and cutting their hair because it's unacceptable, interrupting classes to confiscate things or do checks. Is this how a normal school is run? No momment for peace, laughter & joy. All you worry about would be who's going to pop by next or who is he going to cane now? 

Has Discipline have to come to this extend. Yes, it's true. Every school has to have Discipline, but not to such an extend right? Last year, was school ever like this? Maybe there were occasions where they were strict on Discipline, but it was only occasions. Not something happening, day after day, just like another routine. I guess some of us are even feeling the same way in __. It also doesn't seem that happy anymore? Being 'accused' because someone has escaped and stuff like that, was it like that before too? I don't remember it being so. I remember having un-controllable laughters, playing hangman-s, dancing at the tune of the videos and bonding with each other, being close buddies.



I know now that how Discipline would be done in the school wouldn't change. Even after feedback(s) and voicing out of opinions, we still are just, afterall, students. And even after saying all these i know i'll still have to obey and comply with all the rules and the way the school is curreently being run. The situation won't change, but i hope in both scenarios, things would become better, similar to previous years where there is the right time for everything and school would be school, fun, educational, enjoyable.



It seems like it's impossible currently, but miracles do happen.
